Australian Mom Turns Bratz Dolls Into Regular Girls By Removing Their Unrealistic Makeup

“These dolls have been rescued and rehabilitated from op-shops and tip shops around Tasmania. These lil fashion dolls have opted for a “tree change”, swapping high-maintenance glitz ‘n’ glamour for down-to-earth style. I hand repaint the dolls faces, mold new shoes, and my Mum sews and knits their clothing,” Sonia.

“My sisters and I grew up playing with second-hand dolls and home-made toys in the beautiful Tasmanian natural environment. I love the satisfaction of repairing and reusing discarded items to give them a new lease on life.”

Before and After

Day spa

“If all goes well these little dolls will be ready to move out in March. I hope they are enjoying the day spa before their make under!” Sonia.

“These lil dolls (salvaged from the Recovery Shop in Glenorchy) will get a good wash, new feet, new faces and homemade clothes. Then they’ll be ready for a new home! They may still have some scars from their previous lives (look at those chewed legs) but at least they won’t become landfill,” Sonia.
